Morning all: Long day at the rose garden - poor Robert who supervises the volunteers has been fighting off a bug and a couple of us stayed on longer than usual to help him clean up stuff. I'm sure I'll be stiff tomorrow. Not as many folks showed up as last year and some of the beds were pruned by city employees which means we'll have to go over those beds again since they did a fairly perfunctory job.
Watching Mad Men (Netflix rental video of first season). Great viewing when you're too tired to think. Take care all and have a nice Sunday.
Annette/Diane or anyone else:)

Sorry, Gary. Except for one business trip to San Francisco, I've never been west of the Mississippi River. I did find the main websites online, http://www.yellowstonenationalpark.com/index.html and http://www.nps.gov/yell/index.htm Those give lots of information for planning a visit, but you probably already have them. I personally would want to see the wolves (http://www.yellowstonenationalpark.com/wolves.htm), but that's just me. Good luck and I hope you have a great trip.
Hi, ChrisyB. I'll try to help you and anyone else having trouble.
In order to watch the bear cam or the Norfolk Eagle cam, you must have a program called Adobe Flashplayer 10. If you don't have this program (or your version is old), you can download the new one here for free: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ All you have to do on this page is click Download Now. Follow the directions, and it will load the program onto your computer. Very easy! Once you have this program, you should be able to watch both cams.
One piece of advice: Before you click "Download Now", pay attention to one thing. You will see a little box with a checkmark in it. It says, Include in your download. If you leave that checkmark in that little box, you will also get the Free Google Toolbar. I personally hate that damn thing, so I would click that little box to remove the checkmark before I started.
The program you must have -- Adobe Flashplayer 10 -- will work with all the major browsers (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, etc.), so I doubt that your browser is the problem. I suspect you just don't have a new enough version of Adobe Flashplayer.
I hope that helps!
Margobird: I'm so very sorry about your sister's condition. My thoughts are with you and your family.
